This is one of the most delicious dinner/lunch recipe I’ve ever tried. So simple: I make the marinade before work, let the chicken getting delicious while I’m away, after I got home, just put it in the oven, the dinner is ready within 30 minutes. However if you don’t have long time to marinade the chicken, 30 minutes is enough.

- Roast on middle heat for 30 minutes.
- While the chicken is roasting, make the vegetable sauce.
- Dice the onion and the carrot.
- Cook the onion, carrot and the beans in a little water, just enough to cover the veggies and the spices.
- When the carrots softened, add the wine and the sour cream, cook them for 5 more minutes.
- Blend them with a hand blender until it's completely smooth.
- Serve the roasted chicken breast with rice, the vegetable sauce and the herb butter on the chicken.
The chicken breast is so tender and succulent, the veggie sauce is versatile, so does the herb butter (plus using herb butter on meats and veggies makes me feel posh…am I the only one?!); it’s really simple and quick, so what’s not to love about this meal? It’s a great family meal, believe me, worth to try!
